Pretty bellflowers on upright stalks. Too bad the plant wants to conquer the world by root - we grow it in a large tub to contain its roots.

I'm not the best source of information on gardening in mild climates. In my zone 6 garden, the ladybells die back in late fall, and return in spring. |
| Penny Baker | Jul 23, 2006 | No question, just thought you'd like to know, I found your information quite helpful to me in identifying a plant that showed up amongst some rasberry plants i transplanted. And they come back every year. I am in garden zone 1. Yes, that's right. I live in North Pole, Alaska. So, they will grow in cold climates and return. thank-you for your inforamtion. |
| mongobooo1313 | Jul 25, 2006 | Thank you sooo much for that fabulous picture of the Lady Bell (Adenophora lilifolia). I have this growing all over my yard (yes, it's trying to take over!), and thought at first it was Deadly Nightshade. Now I can stop pulling it all out, and let it do it's thing to fill in my puny garden!
Thanks again!
